Cellular Respiration Questions and Answers
cellular respiration ......ANSWER........the process in which cells
make ATP by breaking down organic compounds
photosynthesis ......ANSWER........the process in which autotrophs
convert light energy into chemical energy
which types of organisms undergo cellular respiration
......ANSWER........both autotrophs and heterotrophs
what happens when organic compounds are broken down into
simpler compounds ......ANSWER........energy is released
what is the energy released by the organic compound mostly
used to do ......ANSWER........produce ATP
the products of cellular respiration (3) ......ANSWER........CO2,
water, and ATP
, age 2 of 9
two stages of cellular respiration ......ANSWER........glycolysis and
aerobic respiration
glycolysis ......ANSWER........a biochemical pathway in which one
six-carbon molecule of glucose is oxidized to produce two three-
carbon molecules of pyruvic acid
how photosynthesis and cellular respiration depend on each
other ......ANSWER........the products of photosynthesis are the
reactants of cellular respiration, and the reactants of
photosynthesis are the products of cellular respiration
anaerobic ......ANSWER........does not require the presence of
oxygen
aerobic respiration ......ANSWER........pyruvic acid is broken down
and NADH is used to make lots of ATP
